About These Birds
Chatham Islands Rail
Chatham Islands Rail (Cabalus modestus). Extinct. Small flightless rail formerly endemic to the Chatham Islands, New Zealand; approximately 20 cm. Known from bones and a handful of historical specimens. Extinct by about 1900 due to introduced cats, rats and predation by early settlers.
Marquesan Swamphen
Marquesan Swamphen (Porphyrio paepae) is an extinct flightless swamphen known only from subfossil bones from the Marquesas Islands, French Polynesia. Lost following Polynesian settlement and later European contact. Part of the broader pattern of Pacific island rail extinctions linked to human arrival and introduced rats.
